INTERIOR

The listed villa from 1898/99 and the rear three-sided building form an extraordinary combination with plenty of space for living, working, and new ideas.

MAIN HOUSE:

Spanning several levels, the property features a total of 11 rooms across approximately 379 m² of living space, combining historic architecture with exceptional craftsmanship and an impressive variety of rooms.

The turn-of-the-century character is evident the moment you enter: original leaded glass windows, wood paneling, cast-iron railings with gold accents, and finely crafted details create a striking first impression. Access is via either the historic front door or, without getting your feet wet, through the approximately 102 m² garage with direct access to the house. Two rooms on the ground floor can be flexibly used as guest rooms, home offices, or retreat spaces.

The open staircase, featuring colorfully patterned window elements, leads to the villa’s central living area. High ceilings, expansive views, and the classic room layout of the era lend the rooms a special elegance and spaciousness.

Each room has its own unique character. Different patterned wallpapers, elaborately restored stucco, wood paneling, fireplaces, and flooring ranging from herringbone parquet and wood planks to ornamental tiles and stone create decorative individuality.

The approximately 17-square-meter custom-built kitchen reinterprets classic design in a contemporary way and blends seamlessly into the overall aesthetic. The kitchen cabinetry in a muted blue, along with its contoured details and natural stone countertop, complements the historically inspired glass panels in the upper cabinets. Equipped with appliances from SMEG and Miele, a warming drawer, a wine refrigerator from Avintage, and faucets from MGS, among other features, the space creates a harmonious environment for cooking and socializing. The separate dining room across from the kitchen offers ample space for convivial meals, whether with family or friends. The color scheme creates a particularly warm dining area, especially in combination with the wooden elements, the floral wallpaper, and the historic stucco ceiling.

Continuing on this floor through the impressive hallway, the private area of the home opens up: an approximately 29 m² bedroom with an adjoining bathroom. Petrol-colored spackle on the walls, shimmering glass mosaic in green and gold, and warm wood floors and furniture lend the room a spa-like atmosphere. The freestanding bathtub and double vanity form the centerpiece of the bathroom. The vanity elegantly divides the space: to the left is the partially separated toilet area, and to the right is a spacious walk-in shower with a rain showerhead and integrated shelf. Faucets by Gessi and bathroom fixtures by Duravit and Villeroy & Boch blend seamlessly into the high-quality overall design.

The approximately 32-square-meter living room exudes coziness thanks to its red patterned wallpaper and herringbone parquet flooring. The tall windows and bay window provide ample natural light. A historic tiled stove adorns the room.

The adjacent fireplace room serves as a classic connecting space between the living and dining areas.

A guest bathroom, lovingly preserved in turn-of-the-century style, completes this living level.

The home’s unique atmosphere continues on the second floor as well. The approximately 17 m² bathroom consistently reflects the property’s design language: dark green mosaic on the walls, mosaic with an integrated pattern on the floor, warm colors throughout, and period details create a distinctive ambiance with a boutique hotel-like flair. The walk-in shower with rain shower further underscores the bathroom’s quality.

The central entryway leads to a bedroom with direct access to another room - which could serve as a children’s room, a dressing room, a workspace, or a private retreat.

An approximately 32-square-meter bay window room is another highlight of this level. Tall leaded-glass windows and the room’s unique ambiance further highlight the villa’s magnificent architecture. Two additional rooms complete the floor plan and stylishly extend the home’s spatial layout. The attic above provides additional storage space.

The main house is complemented by the basement, which features historic vaulted ceilings in some areas. In addition to further utility and ancillary spaces, the entire building services system for the property is located here.

THREE-SIDED COURTYARD BUILDING:

Separate from the main house, the three-sided building located at the rear offers a total of approximately 840 m² of exceptional space for new ideas and a wide range of uses. Historic architecture, open layouts, and the mature atmosphere of the ensemble give the building a character all its own.

The ground floor currently comprises spacious hall and work areas covering approximately 420 m². Exposed natural stone masonry, solid steel beams, restored windows, visible wooden beam structures, and the impressive ceiling height create an atmosphere that blends historic character with a modern take on industrial style. Large doorways and the open layout lend the spaces a distinctive sense of spaciousness. Ideal as a studio, gallery, event space, workshop, showroom, or creative retreat.

The upper floor comprises an additional approx. 420 m² and offers endless possibilities for development and design. The open roof structure with exposed wooden beams and the expansive interior volume create an exciting interplay of history, functionality, and creative freedom.

EXTERIOR

Spanning two lots with a total area of over 3,800 m² in Deidesheim, this exceptional property features a listed villa, a three-sided courtyard, and a beautifully landscaped garden with a pool area. Historic architecture, sheltered outdoor spaces, and the estate’s unique atmosphere combine to create a place of rare tranquility.

The villa, built in 1898/99, defines the property’s appearance with its striking sandstone façade, distinctive tower structure, and finely crafted façade details. Artistic gables, tall windows, and ornamental natural stone elements lend the house a stately yet timeless aura. Delicate wrought-ironwork on the gate and fencing further underscore the historic elegance of the house.

In recent years, the historic structure has been restored with great care. As part of the comprehensive renovation between 2019 and 2022, the existing buildings underwent extensive technical and structural upgrades. The electrical, gas, and water systems, as well as the sewage pipes and drains, were completely replaced. The original proportions, profiled window frames, and the characteristic roofscape have been preserved and continue to maintain the villa’s authentic character to this day. The roof of the main house was re-covered with slate and insulated from the inside. The original historic windows were extensively restored and supplemented with double-glazed frames.

Behind the villa lies a spacious courtyard. Together with the historic three-sided courtyard, it creates a tranquil atmosphere with a southern flair. Restored facades, the clearly defined building structures, and the carefully preserved historic features lend the courtyard a special sense of tranquility and authenticity.

In the center of the courtyard stands an artistically designed fountain, surrounded by gravel areas, natural stone, and lush vegetation. Plane trees, roses, lavender, and green facades define the character of this sheltered outdoor space, creating places for retreat, socializing, and long evenings al fresco. The mature trees, which have grown over decades, lend the property additional depth and, together with the expansive green spaces, create a park-like character.

The newly designed pool area enhances the outdoor space with a private retreat featuring a park-like, Mediterranean atmosphere. The approximately 15 x 5-meter infinity pool, finished with mosaic tiles, blends harmoniously into the garden landscape, while expansive natural stone surfaces and various seating and lounging areas provide a space for peace and relaxation.

Particularly impressive is the approximately 100-square-meter Bauhaus-style pool house, featuring a covered outdoor lounge, an integrated bar, and a shower room. The modern, understated architecture creates an intriguing contrast to the original existing buildings and complements them in a natural way.

The entire property is a listed historic building and has been preserved and developed with great respect for its historical identity. The architecture, spacious open areas, and the exceptional central location in Deidesheim combine to create a rare ensemble with an extraordinary atmosphere.
